Choosing between Computer Science (CS) at IIIT Pune, Mechanical Engineering at IIITDM, and Information Technology (IT) at IIIT Lucknow really depends on what you're into. It's like comparing apples to oranges since CS/IT and Mechanical Engineering require totally different skills.

Here's a simple breakdown to help you decide:

IIIT Lucknow (IT): If you're all about computers, this might be a solid pick. Plus, IIIT Lucknow is currently doing better than IIIT Pune.
IIITDM Mechanical: If you prefer studying at a more established institute and are fascinated by mechanics, this could be your go-to.
Opportunities: Generally, IT is often favored over Mechanical Engineering because of the broader job prospects.

Here’s a quick comparison table:
